Why do so many of them have military experience?

The military severely fucks up peoples' minds. Perhaps it can cause GD-like symptoms, or weaken someones' mental health so if they have it mild they can't manage it anymore when they could before.

False. The actual answer is the USA is so desperate for new recruits they even let sickos in

Then why is there no draft? And why would trans people be drawn to it?

Because the last time the draft was used - for Vietnam - there was large-scale public backlash. Instead the military entices young people with free healthcare and a free third level education.

Besides, the military does not necessarily need a draft anyway. It does not exist to defend America's existence. It exists to expand and defend the Global American Empire and generate revenue for Lockeed Martin and Ratheon.

And why would trans people be drawn to it?

Tricare. While it doesn't (typically) cover surgery, it will cover hormone treatments.

Even the government knows a "draft" would be pointless.

...and 71% of 'draft-age males' are unfit to even be drafted due to:

those who are obese, those who lack a high school diploma or a GED, convicted felons, those taking prescription drugs for ADHD and those with certain tattoos and ear gauges
